the only possible position for us to-day.
II not only resulted in giving us the cher
plare among the nations on the high seas,
and in making our shipb uilding industry one
of the most profitable empoymcnts for Amer

to an amazing degree, opened up to us all the
markets of the world, and furnished us with
the best and most trustworthy kind Of Navy.
The moment this position was aband' ned
that moment saw the sacrifice OF all these
ma gniicent advantages the loss Oh our prs
tige. the loss Of our markets, the loss OF our
marine and the decline of our Navy.
Opportunities for American enterprise on
the high seas never were so cnticing as they

population and industries, with all the ele-

are properly and geographically our markets.
Every day that Congress delays in enabling
American merchants to reap these abundant
haryests sees the greedy clutch of the Eu-
ropean States fastening upon them more and
more tightly. Yet facts, figures and logic all
seem utterly lost upon this Administration.

MIR. GLADsTONE'S DECLINATTON

Mr. Gladstones declnation of the Phila-
delphia invitation was forced upon him by
considerations which Americans will respect
He has devoted the remnant of a laborious
and overwrought life to the great work of
reconcilng England and Ireland. Increasing
burdens Of age warn him that he must husband
his declining strength and take no unnecessary
lisks Absence from England might imperil
the success of the great cause of which he
is the chief advocate; and the enthusiasm
with which he would be received III America
might inspire feelings of jealousy and resent
ment at home which would rctard the progress
Of Home Rule. Even if it were prudent for
him to sub iect himself to the cxhausting strain
OF the journey and reception, it might not be
wise to accept the tribute of respect and adj
miraton which he would receive here. Loved
and venerated as no other English statesman
Of the century has been, he has merciless
political foes. They would look upon his
American journey as a political campaign de-
signed 10 influence public opinion at home.
The warmth Of his greeting by citizens OF
Irish birth would be certain TO excite malevo-
lent sneers from cavilling critics; and the
sympathy for his Iabors for Ireland which
WOUlu % CApICSSCu C'Ciy "hNiO W "h Nihso'S
might be resented by English constituencies
as a foreign attempt to coercc their Judgment
All these considerations have been carefully
weighed by Mr.. Gladstone; and he probably
has acted wisely in deciding to remain at home
"Thc London Times" affects to be at loss
to understand why Mr.. Gladstone was nglcd
out as the best representative Of the English
people for the Philadelphia celebration. IL
il dcprecatcs his selection on account OF his
errors of judgment during the civil war, IL
is less generous than the most bigotcd Amer
lean. Mr.. Gladstone made o serious mistake
in miscalculating the resources of North and
South he was unfriendly to the Union at the
crisis in its history when its existence was at
stake; but Americans have long ago forgiven
and forgotten offences which he himself has
depIorcd They think of him as the greatest
Englishman since William Pitt-as a states
man Of genuine moral force, whose many
sided genius has been devoted to noble and
unselfish ends Their own grievances, which
once embittered their rccollcctions Of him,
have passed out Of sight. In their deliberate
Judgment Mr.. Gladstone towers in serene dig
nifty above Englishmcn Of his time and would
